Lars Strom to Evinrude - Johnson outboards. Facts, history, racing and future.
This is awesome..
Cathy McConnell, yes Jimbo's wife wrote this yesterday. Must have a special thread for this.
Thank you so much Cathy.
OMC had a Wood Miles Master that they used for testing for the SE motor. After they finished testing I drove the boat for a few Midwest races. It was white to start with and I had flowers put on it. I blew it over at Litchfield, Illinois. After the repair it was painted blue and white with flowers. It was named the Sugar Shaker. We went for a record in Kaukauna, Wisconsin in June, 1975. I hit a rock bar in SE and blew the gear case. Then I stepped up to SG and set the record but was DQ because the rear porches were not measured correctly. The boat was 2 inches too short on the running surface. Jimbo set the UJ record that day at 103.332. We were both trying to set records for Evinrude that year. My boat may be the one you are talking about since it was the only Wood Miles Master that OMC Engineering had in the States as far as we know.

It is a full deck Scotti that was redone with pickle forks. The driver is the late Dick Sharp from Seattle WA. Dick Sharp also ran a Glastron Molinari with V4 Strangler power.Quote:
